Welcome to Monday WRites # 339
You've heard about the Monday Blues ❧✿❧well this is  Monday WRites  (musing on the definition here of rite, as any customary observance for eg the rite of afternoon tea). 

March marches on, with a war no one wants, except the perpetrators.
Lovers of peace and goodwill  standby The Ukraine

❧✿❧AYE AYE
"Aye aye" capt'n said the pirate wearing an eye patch.
He had had one too many Caribbean rums that night.
For eying the prize of another he got into a bar fight;
Sylph of a wench who would go willingly to the amplest catch.

  15. I join in your peace prayer for Ukraine. The latter half of the saying you borrowed is “march goes out like a lamb.” Hope the ongoing madness goes out like a lamb in peace SOON.

  18. I think it may the problem with most pirates that they get into problems whenever they try to catch more than they can carry.

  23. Love your poem. Great use of the words aye and eye indeed. Just wondering though, is there a prompt for this blog hop or are we free to write poetry as we want? I know you posted a collage but that wasn't the prompt right?

  24. Hi astrid. You can link a Monday post (Monday Mood) to the linky. No prompt give.

    Glad i sparked your interest
